If you work at Meta and support LGBTQ+ people no you don't.

Meta literally created a LGBTQ exception for calling someone mentally ill as an insult. You can't do it for any other group except LGBTQ people.

Yes quitting your job for justice is hard and scary. If you do it - you are brave and heroic. Some times we need to stand up and die for what's right
If they did, I hope they find much better jobs. I genuinely hope they’ll be ok. If they didn’t, I really don’t understand why not.
I made an assumption, idk what’s heartless about that. My bad I guess?
How pathetic. I did almost go to work for them. This was a couple years ago, but I’m really glad that didn’t work out.

I’m sure almost no one who works for an employer agrees with everything that employer does.
And you are making a HUGE assumption that everyone at Meta is “incredibly well compensated.”
Also, I would have expected a little more self awareness from a writer whose primary platform is Substack.

Bluesky community strikes again.
❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
But it's not OK to point out obvious character flaws such as cowardice, dishonesty, criminality and sexual immorality??? WTF

Growing Bluesky and removing Daily Active Users from X and Meta weakens the power of their platforms.
Let's grow and strengthen OUR community!
"[Insert name here] is a narcissistic sociopath" is a common one seen as permitted. Actual names not used because there's too damn many and it's not really funny anyway.
That means they're explicitly condoning the transphobic "trans people are mentally ill" chestnut. You can also say that women are crazy which has a long and problematic history.
But god forbid you say the people who believe that are dipshits.
Narrator: It will not be treated that way.
And exactly how long is this break-up window? Are we permitted more time to tell our exes to fuck and suck and eat things if the relationship was long-term vs short? Does Meta provide a calculator?
Note the removal of language justifying their policy to prevent violence and the change from "hate speech" to "hateful conduct".
The whole damn place is gonna be comprised of AI bots running everything as soon as possible.
These are not the sort of users that are going to waltz back after being told they're of no value and deserving of condemnation or abuse. There's no "I'm sorry" big enough after this.
Imma keep saying it till it catches on.
They employed Rick Santorum (the David Duke of homophobes) for years & only fired him after he spoke about black people like he’d been talking about queer folks for over a decade
Why do Americans always need a marginalized community to hate on & discriminate against
By this logic people shouldn’t work at half the jobs in the economy because it will offend someone.
Be less absolutist.

By calling it an -ism, that wrongly frames trans people as an ideology that can be debated and extinguished, not a group of people just trying to live their lives.
